Dental implant. A dental implant (also known as an endosseous implant or fixture) is a surgical component that interfaces with the bone of the jaw or skull to support a dental prosthesis such as a crown, bridge, denture, facial prosthesis or to act as an orthodontic anchor.
Mountain lions can be found throughout Arizona and are most common in rocky or mountainous terrain. Because mountain lions are shy and elusive, people do not often see them. However, the Arizona Game and Fish Department estimates the stateâs mountain lion population is robust and increasing at 2,500 to 3,000.
Mountain Lions are native to Nevada but records indicate that they were rare in the state before 1920. Their numbers apparently increased with the growing deer herds in the 1930âs and 1940âs. Lion populations may have declined in the 1970âs but by the late 1980âs populations were near record highs.
